Peter Trippi is editor-in-chief of Fine Art Connoisseur, a bimonthly magazine for collectors of representational painting, sculpture, drawings and prints—both historical and contemporary.
Most recently, Trippi co-curated (with Elizabeth Prettejohn and Ivo Blom) the major touring exhibition Lawrence Alma-Tadema: At Home in Antiquity.
Trippi co-edited the accompanying 250-page book (published by Prestel) with Prof. Prettejohn, and co-convened (with her and others) a symposium in London devoted to Alma-Tadema in October 2017 (Paul Mellon Centre and Birkbeck Institute of the Moving Image).
His 250-page biography of the British painter J. W. Waterhouse R.A. (1849–1917) was published by Phaidon Press (London) in 2002, and has sold more than 50,000 copies.
Trippi operates his own firm, Projects in 19th-Century Art, organizing exhibitions, writing articles, essays, and catalogues, and lecturing widely.
